Redfish Fishing

Redfish are the bulldogs of the Everglades. Although they do not soar through the air when hooked like snook and tarpon, they make up for the lack of airtime with a never give up attitude. 

Redfish can be found tailing and cruising down shallow oyster bars that border the mangrove landscape in search of crabs, shrimp, and small fish. Being less wary than snook or tarpon, any type of lure or fly that resembles their forage will trick a hungry redfish.

Fishing for redfish, which usually run between 4 and 10 pounds, is typically good year round, but they are especially abundant and rambunctious in the fall months.
